Inactivate or activate security roles

When changes to a security role are required, you can choose to create a new version of it. In this case, the previous version of the security role must become inactive. So, it can't be assigned to users anymore.

Before you inactivate a security role, make sure it's not assigned to any user. If you inactivate a security role that is still assigned to users, you get an error message listing the users to which it is assigned.

You can also activate an inactive security role.
